Roots blower intercoolers
Has anyone run a "Super chiller" intercooler on a street/track car? I've seen it done in magazines with a water tank in the trunk or bed or a remote radiator, anybody on the forum tried this out? Manufacturer claims 100 hp gain . Raises blower up 3-4 inches gotta look scary! As they say "Any excuse to turn up the boost!"

Seen 'em on boats, but there's a constant supply of cool water available there. Would be interesting to see how one would work on dry land.

intercooler
I have a 2004 Ford Lightining as my daily driver, and it has a similar but much smaller setup. Chiller in manifold, separate radiator in lower grill, electric water pump moves coolant. Allows 10 lbs boost on pump premium. Just gotta do it on a bigger scale...

Street & Strip
I have seen these intercoolers on Roots Blow boats.
Would a 5-10 gallon fuel cell feed enough cold water to the intercooler

intercooler tank
That would probably do it, the only way I think it wouldn't is if was street driven for many hours and the water lost is cooler temps.. but you can add ice or dry ice and have it last a long time. I've seen guys with small remote radiators too, and that works as well. I would eventually like to try setting one up I'm sure it could be made to work.

Yes,a five or bigger would work the bigger the tank the better

Re: Roots blower intercoolers
Our 6.7L diesel is using water cooled inter cooler for the cold air charge.
On my boat I am running a BLOWER SHOP inter cooler (heat exchange).
With enough water you should do very well on the street...!
